  1. Hi Asena! I love your name! My name is MeLeah Miller, and I am from the United States. I am a student at the University of South Alabama which is located in Mobile, Alabama. I'm in a class called EDM310, and it requires me to create a blog and comment on blogs of other students around the world. I've never been out of the country, so it is very cool to see your posts all the way from New Zealand! I enjoyed seeing what you are learning in math this week! It's amazing how much you already seem to know about blogging! I had no knowledge about blogs until I reached this college course. Keep up the good work, and I wish you the best of luck for the rest of this school year! If you would like you can visit My Blog or our class blog.
